No. Sun can never become a black hole: https://www.nasa.gov/image-feature/goddard/2019/why-the-sun-...
sun noun
\ ˈsən \
1 a: often capitalized : the luminous celestial body around
which the earth and other planets revolve [...]
b: a celestial body like the sun : STAR
Or to quote Carl Sagan: "Across the sea of space, the stars are other suns."Wikipedia states: The Sun is the star at the center of the Solar System.
According to some articles on the web, other stars can be suns as well, if they contain a planetary system.
In common language however "the sun" is typically our star. "a sun" might be other stars as well.
I think most people dont understand and think about the difference and thus think a star is a sun.
(But now I wonder: is there a difference between stars and suns?)
A sun, however, needs to have planets to be a sun.
EDIT: I said it looks like JS eval because I put in `sqrt` and it showed me something like `function sqrt() { [native code] }`
When I tried to input some actual JS code it didn't do anything. I thought it might make for a basic REPL but no luck.
Here are some answers to your questions:
- Why Sol?
I started using Raycast, and it's nice, but found it cumbersome, too many features tackled on top of each other with even more cumbersome navigation. I'm a ruthless simplifier and I wanted a similar yet I-don't-want-to-configure-you tool. I also believe that VC money backed tools face the though reality of unrealistic ROI at some point, so I fully expect other tools to squeeze money out of you at some point. I develop Sol on my free time building the tool that I like, and it will not have any registration step or run analytics on you on any shape or form.
- Where are the docs? it is not launching?
You seem to have tried the app at the unfortunate time where I did some breaking changes and fixing some bugs (try option + space it should launch). Regarding docs there is none, and there will be none, if I need to explain how to use the app I have already failed.
- Why is it called Sun and has a black hole logo?
A black hole is a collapsed sun, do be a stickler. Have fun and enjoy.
- Memory use
Not more than chrome! BOOH YA!
Hope you like the app and feel free to submit PRs!
